The Incredible Power of a Godly Wife
In 1 Peter 3:1-7, the apostle Peter says some very "politically incorrect" things about the roles of husbands and wives. His word to wives is "Be submissive to your husbands." What does that mean? And what if a woman is married to a non-Christian - does she still need to submit? Pastor Mike answers these and other questions about a wife's responsibility toward her husband. This is the first of a two-part series on marriage from 1 Peter 3.
